(a) The rheological properties of the storage modulus for a strain sweep ranging from 0.1 to 100% for the nonherbal hydrogel and hydrogel (10 : 1). (b) The relationship between temperature and the storage modulus for the nonherbal hydrogel and hydrogel (10 : 1) at 25°C. (c) The viscosity of the nonherbal hydrogel and hydrogel (10 : 1). The shear-thinning behavior of herbal extract-loaded hydrogels was characterized by an increasing shear rate from 0.1 to 100 (1/s).
